Hey, this is Rich Hoffman. This is Derek Bonden starting on October 21st, and every week going forward, we are bringing you the Sixers beat, a podcast about the Philadelphia 76ers. The same Philadelphia 76ers, who in the past few years have had a first overall pick, forget how to shoot a basketball, a general manager resigned from his position in the wake of a scandal involving burner Twitter accounts. And, well, a whole lot of other stuff that you really just can't make up. We'll bring you the same blend of in-depth analysis, firsthand perspective from being around the team, and embarrassing travel stories you've come to expect. And now more frequently, since it's actually part of our job to do so. Also, we get a lot of listeners asking us about the best way to support the new show and podcasting on The Athletic.
